Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Aesthetics are important.I dislike traditional aquariums and wanted a product that concealed the pump, heater, cords, etc.I chose the Edge over the BioOrb because it's made from real glass, doesn't obligate me to use cheesy synthetic plants, and is well designed. I love the appearance of the product, but there are a few functional flaws you need to be aware of if you decide to purchase.First, its two halogen lights are insufficient.They effectively light up the center of the aquarium, but the edges go dark.This limits the ability to use aquatic plants that traditionally don't require CO2.The Edge does not come with a heater, however, the power cord can easily be run through the same conduit that conceals the pump.Do not purchase African Frogs as there is no air at the top (which is also one of it's better qualities).The box also says the aquarium is ideal for goldfish, but nothing could be further from the truth.Goldfish require large aquariums and produce a considerable amount of waste.They also grow quite quickly.It's difficult to clean the Edge, so go the low maintenance route.I added a heater, a few low-light aquatic plants, and some neons.No issues.The pump is more than adequate for the size of the aquarium.In fact, you may need to adjust the power to 50% as it's a little strong for fish.I highly recommend this product if you don't a mind a little maintenance and a limited ability to grow plants.
